1/ Trump’s own rhetoric and reported posture point toward a hemispheric dominance doctrine, explicitly framed in revived Monroe Doctrine terms (“Donroe Doctrine”).

The VP of Venezuela is now running the country with literally a gun pointed to her head by Trump’s military. That is how Trump will “run” Venezuela
KEY FACT: Trump doesn't want to bring freedom/democracy to Venezuela--he just wants a leader who will ensure Trump's oil oligarchs can make $. That's why Trump choose as new leader Delcy Rodríguez--Maduro's VP who helped Maduro oppress the people--over pro-democracy activist Maria Corina Machado.

Trump is exploiting our laws in ways no President in history ever did because our democracy never thought any person would get this far.
Trump has and he isn’t done.
Congress needs to shut this Venezuelan aggression down instead of voting down the ability to. Unilateral war is NOT his privilege.

“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.
